Comment How will Electric vehicles save the planet?! (Score 1) 741

-I must be missing something-

If you use an electric car - it needs to be recharged. That energy has to come from somewhere.. So instead of using a combustion engine, you are using energy from power plants, which usually means nuclear energy, or burning fossil fuels. - how does that help pollution?

The only benefit I can see is for urban areas, where you want to reduce the smog created from such a high concentration of vehicles - in which case you do not need a sportscar.

gnat writes "The subheading of the CNN article says it all: 'Four largest record companies defeated in behind-the-scenes battle to charge different prices for songs; downloads still 99 cents'. This comes the same day as France backed down on the posturing over demanding iPod interoperability." From the France article: "Apple, which did not return repeated phone calls, and other DRM holders doing business in France, are likely elated. While the law must still be voted on, the alterations in the legislation signify willingness by some in the French government to honor the rights of companies that don't wish to share their technology with competitors. Senate debate on the bill begins Thursday."
